Businessmen Dan Besciu and Sorin Vulpescu, owners of restaurants Golden Blitz in Bucharest, whose clients include President Traian Basescu, brought the Golden Blitz brands onto the Romanian taxi market. Taxis are operated via construction company Euroconstruct Trading '98 and were withdrawn from Fly Taxi company.
"We withdrew our 33 cars we had at Fly Taxi and only changed our name, having our own central dispatch office. We will not invest in boosting the number of cars," Dan Besciu, one of the owners of Golden Blitz, told ZF.
Fly Taxi, the company controlled by businessman Fernando Enciu, is under financial strain after several companies filed an insolvency petition with a court of law against the company. Although Fly Taxi is on the list of companies with access to the Otopeni Airport after holding monopoly over it for five years, Golden Blitz does not have access to the airport because they withdrew the cars before the tender was held at Otopeni," says Vasile Stefanescu, chairman of Bucharest's Taxi Drivers' Association.
Euroconstruct Trading '98 could collect around 1.2 million RON (around 300,000 euros) in annual revenues from Golden Blitz Taxi, considering the number of cars and the planned daily revenues of 100 RON/car.
